Fill in each blank in the passage below with ONE word you think appropriate.

Ask three people to look out of the same window at a busy street corner and tell you what they see. Chances are that you will receive three (1) different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives something different about it.

Perceiving goes on in our (2) mind. Of the three people who look out of the window, one may say that he sees a (3) policemen giving a motorist a ticket. Another may say that he sees a rush-hour traffic (4) jam at the intersection. The (5) third may tell you that he sees a woman trying to (6) cross the street with four children in tow. For perception is the mind’s interpretation of (7) what the senses — in this case our eyes — tell us.

Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just (8) how a person experiences or perceives the world around him. Using a scientific approach, these psychologists set up (9) experiments in which they can control all of the factors. By measuring and charting the (10) results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene. Hints:

1) different: Here you can use an adjective to mean “being not like each other in one or

more ways”.

2) mind: Here you can use a word referring to the thinking ability.

3) policemen: Who can give a motorist a ticket?

4) jam: What do you always see in the rush hour?

5) third: This refers to the last person of the three.

6）cross: What is the word you can use when you want to express “go to the other side of the stress”?

7) what: Here you need a conjunction to refer to a situation that is unknown or has not been

specified.

8) how: Here you need a conjunction to ask about the way in which something happens or

is done.

9) experiments: What do psychologists do when they want to find out something?

10) results: Here you can use a word meaning “outcome”.

1. The trip to visit their daughter:

Route: California (starting point) – Phoenix (for lunch and oxygen) – St. Louis (spend the night) – Lexington (for lunch) – Princeton (visit daughter)

2. The first trip to their house in Arkansas:

Landing spot: Between a lake and a mountain

Problem: The windsock was worn out.

3. A trip back home:

Problem: They got caught up in snow.

Solution: They called on Edwards Airforce Base for help.

4. A trip to Seattle:

Problem: The landing gear light lit up to indicate that it had failed to work.

When: A Sunday night

C. Listen again. Answer the following questions.

1. Why did they get him lessons to learn how to fly?

As a present for Father’s Day.

2. Why did they stop on the journey across the United States?

The plane didn’t need to stop, but they needed a break.

3. What does she mean when she says “But Arkansas is interesting that way”?

She is suggesting that things don’t always work properly, or as you expect.

4. What was she worried about in the snowstorm near San Bernardino?

She was worried about the possibility of hitting the mountains, as the visibility was poor.

5. How did she feel about the danger?

She was not too worried about it, and she seemed to accept it as normal.

Tapescript

Flying Your Own Plane

My husband always wanted to fly a plane. So once for Father’s Day my two daughters and I ... made an arrangement for lessons with a local teacher ... flying teacher. And I told them, “Now I can always get a new husband, but you can’t get a new father.” And so they said, “Well, maybe we’d better not give him those lessons,” but we did and he learned to fly and he bought his own plane. Well it was a twin-engine plane. And it would go ... it could go as say three thousand miles at a shot, and without having to stop for gas. But then people can’t go that long, so we would fly just so far, like from California to Phoenix for instance and have lunch and get oxygen in the plane and then fly on to maybe St. Louis and spend the night. And the next day, stop at Lexington maybe for lunch. And then that night we would be in Princeton to visit our daughter. So it was always great travelling across country in that plane.

We had a house in Arkansas and we would fly there occasionally to check on it. And that was always very interesting landing there. The first time we tried it, the landing strip was between a lake and a mountain and the windsock was all worn out so we couldn’t see what way the wind was blowing except by looking at the waves on the lake. So that was entertaining trying to land in that little dangerous spot. But Arkansas is interesting that way.

And of course sometimes it could be quite worrying. I know on one trip back home we came into a storm. That was at San Bernardino and somehow we got caught up in snow. We were trapped and we didn’t know how to get out of there because we had the mountains between us and home. And we had to call on Edwards Airforce Base to get us over the mountains.

Little things like that made it entertaining. And then once on a trip to Seattle, the landing gear light came on saying that i t wasn’t working. And that way you don’t know if the wheels are down really because you can’t see under there. And we were coming home and it was a Sunday night and no one was at the airport so we couldn’t fly by the tower to let someone see if the wheels were down. So we really had a kind of chance to land it. So we didn’t know if we were going to land on wheels or on the bottom of the airplane.

So there were interesting moments like that. How did my husband put it? “You spend thousands and thousands of hours with just boring ordinary flying, punctuated by moments of sheer terror.” But we always made it. Sometimes I thought we weren’t going to, but it was fun.

About the author: Dow n the drain Edward ' s The Hidden Dimension, perhaps the scariest book (even scarier than 1984) I ever read. Scary, because it isn ' t fiction, but a rather elaborate essay on anthropology and proxemic behavior. If Hall ' s right, things as disregard for other cultures, mindless urban development and demographic growth have gen erated a behavioral sink in which stress, crime, in tolera nee and physical and psychic disease grow everyday, and to makethings worse, our governments take measures that only accelerate the process. We are all going dow n the drain.

新编英语教程第三版李观仪Unit课文及译文参考

Unit 1 恰到好处 Have you ever watched a clumsy man hammering a nail into a box? He hits it first to one side, then to another, perhaps knocking it over completely, so that in the end he only gets half of it into the wood. A skillful carpenter, on the other hand, will drive the nail with a few firm, deft blows, hitting it each time squarely on the head. So with language; the good craftsman will choose words that drive home his point firmly and exactly. A word that is more or less right, a loose phrase, an ambiguous expression, a vague adjective （模糊的形容词）, will not satisfy a writer who aims at clean English. He will try always to get the word that is completely right for his purpose. 你见过一个笨手笨脚的男人往箱子上钉钉子吗？只见他左敲敲，右敲敲，说不准还会将整个钉子锤翻，结果敲来敲去到头来只敲进了半截。而娴熟的木匠就不这么干。他每敲一下都会坚实巧妙地正对着钉头落下去，一钉到底。语言也是如此。一位优秀的艺术家谴词造句上力求准确而有力地表达自己的观点。差不多的词，不准确的短语，摸棱两可的表达，含糊不清的修饰，都无法使一位追求纯真英语的作家满意。他会一直思考，直至找到那个能准确表达他的意思的词。 The French have an apt（贴切的） phrase for this. They speak of “le mot juste,” (the exact word) the word that is just right. Stories are told of scrupulous（一丝不苟的） writers, like Flaubert, who spent days trying to get one or two sentences exactly right. Words are many and various; they are subtle（微妙的） and delicate（细腻的） in their different shades（色调）of meaning, and it is not easy to find the ones that express precisely（正是，恰恰） what we want to say. It is not only a matter of having a good command of language and a fairly wide vocabulary; it is also necessary to think hard and to observe accurately. Choosing words is part of the process of realization, of defining our thoughts and feelings for ourselves, as well as for those who hear or read our words. Someone once remarked: “How can I know what I think till I see what I say?” this sounds stupid, but there is a great deal of truth in it. 法国人有一个很贴切的短语来表达这样一个意思，即“le mot juste”, 恰到好处的词。有很多关于精益求精的作家的名人轶事，比如福楼拜常花几天的时间力求使一两个句子在表达上准确无误。在浩瀚的词海中，词与词之间有着微妙的区别，要找到能恰如其分表达我们意思的词绝非易事。这不仅仅是扎实的语言功底和相当大的词汇量的问题，还需要人们绞尽脑汁，要观察敏锐。选词是认识过程的一个步骤，也是详细描述我们的思想感情并表达出来使自己以及听众和读者深刻理解的一个环节。有人说：“在我思想未成文之前，我怎么知道自己的想法？”这听起来似乎很离谱，但它确实很有道理。 It is hard work choosing the right words, but we shall be rewarded by the satisfaction that finding them brings. The exact use of language gives us mastery（掌握） over the material we are dealing with. Perhaps you have been asked “What sort of a man is so-and-so（某某等）?” You begin: “Oh, I think he’s quite a nice chap （家伙）but he’s rather…” and then you hesitate trying to find a word or phrase to express what it is about him that
